What’s Your Go To Butcher Shop

[Matt1997]

I’m a huge fan of good cured and dried meats. Pepperonis, salamis, saucisson. What’s your go to place for the best? I’m a fan of Starskys, Superior meats, and Victoria meats before it closed here in Ontario. Looking to find other places. Best I have had was when I was in Spain, downtown Barcelona this little shop on the street. They would cut prosciutto right from the leg in front of you. Im sure not as appealing to some but it was incredible. Everything in the shop was. There was another street market down by the beach that was also incredible for this kind of stuff.

Going to be the end of an era for small shop smoked meats with the way the enforcement is going.

It's all ready started, most of the smaller butcher shops in our area are now sending it to one larger company to be done. The cost of a used stainless steel smoker is in the price range of 80k+

Euro Food on Highland has a pretty good section.

No frills

Gunn Hill is good.
4 Brothers
South of Woodstock.

Or hit the farmers market.
Roaring 40’s is my favourite

No, they don’t sell frills so I don’t shop there.

If you ever visit the city you gotta stop into St Jamestown Steak & Chops - one of the best butchers in Toronto IMO

Thinking about placing an order, is it good?

That explains the giant pieces of meat at Loblaws I saw earlier yesterday noon. Looked like quarter of a cow

There used to be a butcher place in Essex Ontario our family used to go to when I was growing up. I'm not so sure they're there anymore

There are a few places just north of London. Follow Medeterian road about 25 minutes north east until you see a sign that says meat market. It's a small side business at someone's house. She sells for all the local farmers

I get wild boar and lamb from there all the time, they are both excellent. I imagine everything else would be equally as good. They have also won a ton of awards for their cacciatore
